I have tried for two hours to work out what I have done wrong here and woudl appreciate other heads at this stage.

I have a css tabbed box with java on click event. The problem is css.

When i select a link, hover etc its all great but once i have selected it and move away it doesnt show. I know its because the active link is set to white but i need it to be white on a blue background and when selected black text on a white background.
